kvm: x86: Toggling CR4.SMAP does not load PDPTEs in PAE mode
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit 427890a ]

See the SDM, volume 3, section 4.4.1:

If PAE paging would be in use following an execution of MOV to CR0 or
MOV to CR4 (see Section 4.1.1) and the instruction is modifying any of
CR0.CD, CR0.NW, CR0.PG, CR4.PAE, CR4.PGE, CR4.PSE, or CR4.SMEP; then
the PDPTEs are loaded from the address in CR3.
